How to Load Frameworks into TrackAble

Loading an assessment framework into TrackAble requires care and accuracy. Errors during upload can cause significant data issues that are difficult to fix after the framework is live.

Accessing the Import Feature

1. Go to the Admin area
2. Click Import Assessment Framework
3. Click More Detail to view full instructions from the knowledge base

Why Accuracy Matters

Uploading a framework incorrectly can cause serious problems:

• Pupils become difficult to baseline
• Progress tracking breaks down
• Reports fail to generate correctly
• Corrections cannot be made by simply reloading the file

Once a framework is uploaded with errors, you must delete it, correct the spreadsheet, and reload it entirely.

Matching Rules: Spelling and Spacing

TrackAble matches data exactly, which means:

• Spelling errors create duplicate entries (e.g., "Engish" vs. "English" = 2 subjects)
• Capitalization differences create duplicate entries (e.g., "English" vs. "english" = 2 subjects)
• Extra spacing creates duplicate entries (e.g., "Level 1" vs. "Level 1" = 2 levels)

Before You Upload: Data Cleanup

To prevent errors:

1. Highlight the entire spreadsheet
2. Run a custom data sort by framework, subject, and level to spot inconsistencies
3. Perform a full spell check
4. Review for capitalization consistency across all entries
5. Check spacing in text fields (no extra spaces)
6. Save the corrected file

Uploading and Allocating the Framework

Once your file is verified and cleaned:

1. Click Import Assessment Framework
2. Choose your file
3. Click Import
4. The framework is added to your available frameworks

To allocate the framework to classes:

1. Go to Admin > Lists > Classes
2. Click to edit the specific class
3. Allocate the framework
4. Save

After Upload: Verification

Immediately after uploading:

1. Open the framework to review it
2. Check for duplicate levels or subjects
3. Check for spelling or spacing errors

If you find issues and the framework is brand new (no pupil data yet):

• Delete the framework
• Correct the spreadsheet
• Upload the corrected version

This is much easier than trying to fix errors later when data is attached to the framework.
